A child is raped in South Africa every 3 minutes. This fund, set up by the makers of the film, The Lost Girls of South Africa, aims to highlight this issue and provide viewers an opportunity to directly help the girls in the film, and to find out more about organisations that are active in this area in South Africa.

The Lost Girls of South Africa is a timely and revealing feature length documentary that offers a privileged glimpse into what life is really like for young girls growing up in South Africa. It follows the stories of four girls, aged 11-13, who become victims of child rape, looking at the experience and its aftermath through their eyes and in their words.
